During the summer, the Eagle's Nest Resort on Middle Gresham Lake in Vilas County is a haven for vacationers looking to soak up Northwoods life.

It's a little resort, on an out of the way lake, and it tends to attract people who want to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Some families have been going to Eagle's Nest for years, always reserving the same cabin during the same summer week, said resort owner Charlie Spencer. And it's his job to ensure that they have the best possible experience, which doesn't leave him much time to enjoy the lake and cabin himself.
